EXOTIC AIICROLEPIDOPIERA. 
second, moderate, pointed. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, 
appressed to tongue. Posterior tibiae rough-scaled above. Fore¬ 
wings with small tufts of rough scales ; 1 b furcate, 2 from angle, 
7 and 8 stalked, 7 to just below apex, 11 from middle. Hind- 
wings 1, oblong-ovate, cilia ; 2 from -4 of cell, slightly curved, 
3 and 4 connate or closely approximated from angle, 5 curved, 
rather approximated, 6 and 7 nearly parallel. 
I now think it desirable to form this genus for eripias Meyr., 
which I included in Enicostoma in the Genera Insectorum . 
COSMOPTERYGILLE. 
Cosmopteryx quadrilineella Chamb.

rising from beneath hindwings and directed alongside of abdomen. 
Forewings basal pale grey or grey-whitish with violet reflection, 
with vermilion-red markings, viz. four spots in a very oblique 
series from costa near base to dorsum before middle, dorsal area 
beneath these more whitish and minutely speckled blackish, one 
beneath costa at A, one in disc beyond this, whence a longitudinal 
streak runs to near end of this area, a wedgeshaped spot on dorsal 
end of the area, and a mark beneath costal end; remainder of 
wing pale ochreous-yellowish tinged fleshcolour on tornus and 
termen, separated from preceding area on costa and dorsum by 
silvery-whitish marks, costal cut by a minute black strigula, dorsal 
tipped by a minute black dot, between these a short acute pro¬
